Build a Spooky Halloween Gingerbread House

Aug 15th 2020

Christmas may be the holiday best associated with gingerbread houses. But who says we have to wait till then to put our creativity to the test? This year, start a new Halloween tradition by creating a haunted gingerbread house!
Sounds fun right until you start Googling “how to make gingerbread.” Not to mention hunting for icing recipes and looking for just the right add-ons decorate the outside. Then you say to yourself, “I wish there were an easier way to do this!”
Well, there is!
This year we’re making it easy for you to create your very own with our Halloween Gingerbread House Kits  featuring Airheads candy. Each one of these kits has everything you need including the cookie house panels, pre-mixed icing, and assorted candies.

Just join the house panels, secure them with icing, and use the Airheads candy to decorate the house. The kit even has a quick and easy recipe to make additional icing if you want to take your decorating skills to the next level.
These haunted house gingerbread houses make a great family activity! Order a kit for each family member and let them explore their creative sides. When finished, add the gingerbread houses to your Halloween decorations.
These kits are also great for classroom art projects. Teachers, order a few for your class and break your students out into groups where they can build a house as a team and then let everyone vote on a class favorite. The completed creations can be part of your classroom Halloween display.
While these kits come with everything you need to build a spooky gingerbread house, you may want to complete the display by adding additional candy “decorations” to the house, or even create a yard or graveyard next door.
